Badly Nipped.
SANFORD, FLA, March 31.-The severe
white frosts during the present month
have done much damage to vegetation.
Irish potatoes, beans, tomatoes, melons
and squashes were killed. Cabbages and
onions were not hurt. In few sheltered
places potatoes have managed to rub
through. The frosts since March 10 have
been hardly perceptible unless in places
badly exposed. We hear reports from
different parts OF this country which are
very contradictory, viz: AT Titusville,
on Indian river, frosts OF the first part of
the month were very severe. Reports
from Polk, fernando and Manatee coun-
ties are that melons, tomatoes, etc., were
killed. AT West Orange and Sumter the
reports indicate the same condition OF
affairs. There has been no damage to
fruit (oranges) or trees 30 far as heard
from. The rank and unprecedented
growth of February was well matured
before the frosts came.
Many large real estate transfers have
been recently made. Sanford seems to
have a building boom.

merchant. Some years ago we will re
collect the Japanese craze which ragged in
this country. A more charming fashion
never was designed, and you have no idea
what change it affected in the style OF
dress. The soft silk. wound in graceful
folds, presented a most pleasing contrast
to the puffs, flutings and pleats of the
Old fashion. and our designers found n
new field Of art opened up To them. Not
only did the Japanese craze affect dresses,
but home decorations as well, and for
once style and beauty were joined to-
gethcr.
The Japanese have decided to discard
their time honored fashions. The empress
of Japan has issued an order abolishing
the native costumes and substituting for
them the latest Partisan styles. That the
japanese, who are nothing if not artistic,
should set themselves in this cold blooded
way to blot out one of the most delightful
and picturesque features Of the whole
national life is incredible, unnatural and

The nightmare, supposed, of course, to
be caused by supernatural agency, was
banished by means of n stone with hole
in it, being suspended at the head of the
sufferers bed. This last remedy went by
the name of a 'hag stone" because it
prevented the witches, who, of course,
wrought the mischief, from sitting on the
patients stomach. Its effect upon these
mischievous old crones was singularly de-
terrent. The poor old creatures, who
